The Hugo Award was named in honor of Hugo Gernsback, "The Father of
Magazine Science Fiction," as he was described in a special award
given to him in 1960. The Hugo, also known as the Science Fiction
Achievement Award, is given annually by the World Science Fiction
Society (WSFS). The Hugo Award is sponsored by WSFS, administered by
the committee of the World Science Fiction Convention (Worldcon) held
that year, and determined by nominations from and a popular vote of
the membership of WSFS. In general, a Hugo Award given in a
particular year is for work that appeared in the previous calendar
year.
The Nebula Awards are voted on, and presented by, active members of
the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America, Inc. Since 1965,
Nebula Awards have been given each year for the best novel, novella,
novelette, and short story eligible for that year's award. An
anthology that includes the winning pieces of short fiction and
several runners-up is published every year.
